[ General information ]

Nakiri boucho and usuba boucho are Japanese-style vegetable knives. 
They differ from the deba boucho in their shape, as they have a straight blade edge suitable for cutting all the way to the cutting board without the need for a horizontal pull or push. 
These knives are also much thinner. While the deba boucho is a heavy blade for easy cutting through thin bones, the blade is not suitable for chopping vegetables, as the thicker blade can break the vegetable slice. 
The nakiri boucho and the usuba boucho have a much thinner blade. This does not help with cutting small bones in fish or meat, but is useful for cutting vegetables.

This "For your reference:" is a general information. (Not an explanation for this product.)
I hope this reference / general information will be useful to you.

Nowadays, Japanese knives are made in a variety of materials, weights, shapes, and sizes. 
Some used knives are old and used, while others are as good as new. 
Please refer to the listing page and photos for details of each item. 
Thank you.
